Could a 5 foot 3, 120 pound male shoot a firearm in the .25-06 rem easily?
We are not afraid of recoil. I want a gun that shoots a bullet that can be used for target practice, but when the time comes to hunt small game, or deer. Once again could he fire it from the bench postion, or standing up? How bad would the recoil be (bad, really bad,ok...) Thank you

Nope, not a problem. Go with the 100 gr bullets for target practice and varmints and use the 120 gr bullets for deer. Recoil is reasonable with the cartridge in general but using the lighter bullets for targets will teach trigger and breathing control without fear, and when using the heavier bullets on deer the recoil won't be felt due to the heebee jeebies of buckfever.What's the best way to catch a Permit?

This caliber wouldn't be very bad to shoot.Recoil would be in the low to mid range.A more suitable caliber would be a 243 or 308.Both will do what you want and more.You can find ammo at any retail store around.What is the difference between a shove-it, pop shove-it, 180 shove-it?

Year of manufacture for a Smith & Wesson revolver?
to me it sounds like your afraid of the recoil so in your cause id get a pump bb gun or a .22na im just jokin how about a .243 or a 270 there strong enough to kill a deer and strong enough to put a bruise on your arm and if your feelin up to somthin get u a 30-06 thats what i got and man tht thing is powerful
Even the overbore 25-06 (my bias is showing--I think the 257 Roberts is the best-balanced quarter bore) is not going to be a problem at all IF THE STOCK FITS. Most standard stocks come from the factory with about a 13 5/8" length of pull, and that's probably a bit much for 5'3" but can be remedied pretty easily. I'd suggest when you shop, go to a real gun shop (as opposed to, say, Wal Mart) and see if you can have a fitting.
I want a skateboard but my mom and dad wont let me get one?!?!?
you should be just fine with that firearm. I would recommend a .243 as it is a more popular calibre. But you can probably go up to a .30 calibre such as a .308 Best thing to do is shoot a few different rifles and see what you like . IF you find the .25-06 to be the rifle for you then go with it.hope it helps!
I was wondering does anybody knows has somebody died during bungee jump?
yesIm going to buy a gun and need some advice.?
If you want it for deer I would get a .30-30, .30-06, .270. For small game (coyote and smaller) would get a .223Any fishermen or fisherwomen from the treasure coast area of Florida?
the .25-06 is a very good dual purpose round. the recoil is very mild, as compared to a 270 or 30-06, and just by changing bullet weight can be either a deer round or a varmint round. recoil is very mild in this caliber, but PERCIEVED recoil can make it seem worse that it really is. there is no need to look at other calibers as others have suggested in here, that round is capable of taking the game that you have stated and then some. this was the caliber i chose to start my son on when he first started to hunt deer.(and he was afraid to shoot a BB gun ) he now shoots that gun almost as well as i shoot my own.Short answer: "Absolutely!" The .25-06 Remington is a sweetheart to shoot. Hardly any perceived recoil with 100 to 120 grain bullets. The .25-06 is accurate, fast and hard-hitting for up to Mule Deer size game.
I purchased a new Remington 700 ADL in .25-06 in 1974. It is still my favorite deer rifle. This particular rifle does not come with a recoil pad and I have not had one added to it (but may to add a bit of 'length' to the stock). The only time I felt any recoil was one weekend that I shot bird with a 12 gauge over-n-under ALL weekend long and had a bruise on my shoulder, then shot a Whitetail at 250 yards with my .25-06. NOTE: This was a 'standing' shot with no support for my rifle. The deer disappeared from my scope and thinking I missed I nearly didn't look for it. The deer hadn't gone anywhere. It dropped in its tracks to a perfect neck shot from my .25-06; the unexpected 'pain' to my bruised shoulder (from the 12 gauge) caused me to momentarily close my eyes thus not seeing that the deer had dropped, not run. Shooting the .25-06 from a bench or kneeling or with a 'shooting-stick' is a breeze. I'm 5-9, 214 lbs. now; back then I was still 5-9 but only weighted 140 lbs. (Ah, how I miss those days. LOL!)
Final note: For deer size game use the 115 to 120 grain bullet. My experience is that the heavier bullets hold together better than the lighter loads.
Good luck.

How can I use small rifle primers in the .22-250 or .250 Savage cartridges?
As long as you aren't a big pansy, you should be able to shoot a 25-06. The kick isn't much more than a .243, and a .243 has basically no kick. You should be able to shoot it while standing, sitting, or from bench position.What is the true value on a pre-ban assualt rifle.?
I think so, if recoil isn't a problem. The .25-06 doesn't have a bad recoil, so as long as the rifle fits the individual shooting it (I'm 5'6", and a Remington 700 fits me fine), you should be ok. The .25-06 is a great round for varmints and is also suitable for deer, but the only drawback is that you may have to go to a gun store or sporting goods store for ammo. It may not be available at your local wal-mart, which means that ammo may be a little more expensive. You might want to consider a .243 or 7mm 08, also.
